The Bible has much to say about our speech and what comes out of our mouths. We would be foolish not to listen to God's Word and reign in our tongues.

One of God’s stranger affections is the special love He had for Jacob of the Old Testament. We are reading through this story in daily Mass this week. According to some, the name Jacob means “grabber” or “usurper.” Even while still in his mother Rebekah’s womb, Jacob wrestled with his twin brother, Esau. Although Esau … Continue reading "A Battle You Can’t Afford to Win – The Story of Jacob’s Conversion"

Don't miss these important truths found in the story of David and Absalom. Our modern culture needs to learn this lesson.
In traditional African societies, leadership succession is a serious decision. After a king’s demise, great care is taken selecting the next ruler. Besides being from a royal family, the successor must be strong, fearless, and sensible. Candidates are questioned to determine if they will serve the people or rule with a heavy hand. The king’s successor needs to be someone who leads but also serves. Even though Solomon made his own bad choices, he worried over his successor. “Who knows whether that person will be wise or foolish? Yet they will have control over all the fruit of my toil into which I have poured my effort and skill” (Eccl. 2:19). His son Rehoboam was that successor. He demonstrated a lack of sound judgment and ended up fulfilling his father’s worst fear. When the people requested more humane working conditions, it was an opportunity for Rehoboam to show servant leadership. “If today you will be a servant to these people and serve them . . . ,” the elders advised, “they will always be your servants” (1 Kings 12:7). But he rejected their counsel. Rehoboam failed to seek God. His harsh response to the people divided the kingdom and accelerated the spiritual decline of God’s people (12:14-19). In the family, the workplace, at church, or in our neighborhood—we need His wisdom for the humility to serve rather than be served.

Imagine meeting the angel of the Lord in a burning bush . . . a bush that was not burning up. What would be your response? Awe? Fear? Would you be like Moses, and approach with curiosity? What would you do if God called out to you by name? Would you run and hide? Approach timidly? Respond as Moses’ did, “Here I am.” Would you fall on your face, when you realized the God of the Universe was meeting you in this holy and sacred place? I’ve thought of this often as I’ve experienced times in which I’ve felt God…
